Dear Investors July 31, 1996
SEI needs your help. We are currently conducting a vote among all shareholders
of SEI Funds in order to approve the members of our mutual fund Board of
Trustees. So far, the participation rate in this vote has been extremely low
requiring a re-mailing of the ballots and telephone solicitation of
shareholders urging them to vote. You may have recently received the SEI proxy
material in the mail. The vote pertains to the following "groups" of funds:
SEI Institutional Managed Trust
SEI International Trust
SEI Daily Income Trust
SEI Liquid Asset Trust
SEI Tax Exempt Trust
SEI Index Funds
This proxy vote is required by law and must be completed. There will continue
to be repeated mailings and additional follow-up efforts until a majority of the
shareholders return their proxy ballots. Please help SEI and all other
shareholders reach this goal by participating in this vote.
If you received these proxy ballots, please take a minute to sign all the
ballot cards and return them in the mail. You need to complete a ballot for
each SEI mutual fund you own. You may have received several ballots-they are
not duplicates--each one is for a different SEI fund. The simplest way to vote
is to sign the ballot cards and return them in the mail. They may also be
faxed to (610) 989-6176.
Many investors authorize their investment advisor to vote their shares on their
behalf. If your advisor has been authorized by you to vote your shares, the
ballots have already been sent directly to your advisor for completion.
If you have any questions concerning how to vote, or if you need to request
additional ballots, please call your investment advisor or SEI Investor
Services at 1-800-DIAL-SEI.

Please vote the enclosed ballot and return it immediately. Every vote counts

important matter can prevent your fund from bearing the cost of another remail.
VOTING ON YOUR FUND IS VERY IMPORTANT.
